‘Justify’ (as used in Romans)

Justify,
	align again,
	line up beside and towards,
	get hearts in Love's true order,
	heal torn ligaments in our disjointed hearts.

'All we like sheep have gone astray,
we have turned, each one, to our own way...
but the Lord...'
	has gathered scattered ones,
	brought home our thieving hearts,
	has banked our love around to 
	strengthen it;-

This word, to 'justify',  is full of
	music, 
		feast  
			and dancing,-
	new-sandalled feet,
	new ring of covenant embrace,-
	'I once was lost but now I'm....'
	found at home,
	in re-united love with all my God.

Praise Him who freely to his heart, and theirs,
	now 'justifies' this splattered heart of mine.
